Enhanced Energy Storage Performance of Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3 Ceramic by Incorporating High Polarization NaNbO3
摘要
Surpassing polymeric materials in temperature stability, dielectric ceramics are ideal for high-power electronics. However, enhancing their energy storage density remains challenging. Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3 exhibits low dielectric loss and high efficiency but suffers from intrinsically low polarization, limiting its energy storage density. To address this, we introduce NaNbO3 into Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3 to enhance its energy storage capabilities. The 0.8Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3-0.2NaNbO3 achieves a record recoverable energy density (Wrec) of 5.36 J/cm3 with 84.4% efficiency (η) under 390 kV/cm breakdown strength. This work demonstrates that doping Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3 with high-polarization ferroelectrics such as NaNbO3 can significantly enhance its energy storage performance.
